Write more to worry less
English is not my native language and I remember how anxious I was about that. I worried about missed words, bad pronunciation or word order.
After moving to another country, quite suddenly, English became my main language for everyday interactions with world around me. And to my surprise, as day after day passed, my past worries almost completely vanished.
I thought about possible underlying pattern and I think I got it. It is all about process, about act of doing. If there is no act, there is worry instead.
I don't think that my English improved significantly, I still do mistakes, I still sometimes worry, but external factors forced me to exchange at least a bit of those worries for actual usage of English.
And now it is not about external factors, but internal ones that took lesson from those external.
I like to write,
I also worry to write,
so I will write more,
to worry less.
